33 day Hike through Alaska
 

4 guys take a 33 day hike through Wrangell St Elias National Park.

Glaciers, bears and beautiful scenery, with a zillion captioned pictures.

Remarkable graphics. She really did do a great job with them. I can remember seeing a lot of them in print as that was just as the internet really started to take off and I read the Sunday Times on a regular baisis. Cool stuff about the handguns too...

That's good to know. All the criminals that read the times will change the way they walk so you can't tell they're packing. I will continue to walk normally, so they know I'm packing.
